Winters not so bad

Looks like I'm riding to work and beyond for the next 10 days.

It's nice up in Wichita Falls too. But my ride needs new shoes and the 8K service. And I just don't have 500 bucks to get her up and going. It's rather heart breaking........

It would require some creative thinking to pull that one off.

blah blah blah its nice where X is, haha. i see your night temps are still quite low (Considering how high the day temps are). i hate that. its like that here in the spring/fall and it annoys me. i can be out during the day, 70+ deg. w/ my A* leather jacket on and then i'd have to make a pit-stop at the casa to switch to my Joe Rocket textile for the chilly night riding.

i dont know why i still check the forcast anymore. its RR regardless, lol.

You up at Sheppard? I was there for a bit, lived off of missle road before you got to the DPS. Great place for top-speed straight line riding but for any kind of twisties we always headed a bit north of Lawton to the "mountains" Arrowhead has some good roads for back-country riding with minimal pressure from the law. The only danger is to yourself, bike, maybe a fence or a cow.

There is a big difference between night and day temps for sure. My backpack is always stuffed full of gear on the way home from work. I'd melt if I wore it all in the sun. I'm still geared up but only one layer.
